What is a recall?
It’s probably fair to say that most everyone has heard of recalls taking place in the normal world. Recalls usually take place when a product that is released poses a threat to the general public’s health and well-being. In the automotive industry the general principle remains the same, it just applies to vehicles.
An automotive recalled is typically issued when an auto manufacturer or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration determines that a vehicle, vehicle equipment, car seat or tires creates an unreasonable safety risk or fails to meet minimum safety standards.
In the event that your vehicle has an automotive recall placed on it, your auto manufacturer should be in contact with you via mail to make sure that you receive the proper remedies for the recall according to various safety acts nationwide.
